Throwback Thursday: Nap Time
Hey, dear readers. How are you doing? Probably ready for a break, huh? As the year marches on and the promise of some nice winter holidays looks to be just over the horizon, it can be easy to start to feel the need to have a rest.
From this 1967 photo from the Aesculapian Yearbook, courtesy of the Baylor College of Medicine Archives, a young doctor gets a nap before (or after?) a long day. Sometimes you take what you can get.
In our western countries people taking a nap look like lazy or people having bad habits that make them not sleeping enough at night, they are judged in a bad way by their coworkers. But in many other countries, especially in Asia and Africa, people are having a short nap everyday after lunch and nobody judge them, it is a part of their culture. More over, the benefits of a short nap have been proved already. Well I feel a bit tired now, I go to have a 10min nap and feel like a newborn then !
